Why Europe is Building a $34BN Transport Mega-Hub
Infrastructure 30 Apr 2025
Welcome to The B1M
America actually built something on time and on budget
This rail bridge in New York has been completely rebuilt without any disruption to services. The Park Avenue Viaduct carries hundreds of trains — and more than 250,000 passengers — along one of America’s busiest railroads every day, and has done so since 1897.
But over time it’s been showing signs of disrepair, and has had to be replaced piece by piece. Incredibly, the project has been running hundreds of millions of dollars under budget and years ahead of schedule. The B1M got the chance to visit the site as the last of the segments were swapped in. Join Fred Mills as he finds out what has made this such a rare US success story.
